Ferrisburgh Town Plan 2017-2025
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
It is the intent and purpose of the Ferrisburgh Town Plan to guide the future growth and development of land, public services and facilities, and to protect the environment of the Town of Ferrisburgh, with particular attention to the Route 7 corridor and compliance with recently enacted state regulations.
APPROVAL
The Ferrisburgh Town Plan 2017-2025 was unanimously approved by the Selectboard on August 15, 2017.
PROCESS
The Planning Commission began gathering information and opinions from Ferrisburgh residents for the new town plan in 2013, including holding an open house and conducting a survey. The Commission worked closely with the Addison County Regional Planning Commission during the next several years and six drafts, before finalizing its draft in early 2017.
Once the final draft was set, the Planning Commission held a public hearing and approved the final draft on March 15, 2017. The Selectboard then held three public hearings to discuss the final draft, on May 9, June 27, and August 8, 2017. The Selectboard voted to adopt the Plan at its regular meeting on August 15, 2017.
